Chapter 12
Among The Stars
Chapter 12
Mara looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her hair had been piled in curls on top of her head. Today, she would become Mara Jade Skywalker. She turned when the door opened and closed.
“You look beautiful Mara,” Talon smiled.
“Thanks. Is it time?” Mara asked.
“Yep. Let’s walk you down the aisle,” Talon answered.
It had only been a week since she returned to Coruscant and confessed her love to Luke, and he confessed his love to her. The day after Luke proposed, they told his family and their friends. Talon and his crew rushed back to be at the ceremony.
Leia and Han as well as Jacen, Jaina, and Anakin were thrilled. Leia had helped Mara find the perfect dress. The last two days before the wedding, Mara stayed with Leia, Winter, Mirax, and a few others women at the Solo apartment. Luke stayed at his apartment with Han, Talon, Corran, Lando, and the rest of the men.
************************************************************************
Luke shifted nervously, causing Han to chuckle. “Nervous kid?”
“Yeah. Were you nervous when you married Leia?” Luke asked.
“Like a Jawa standing in front of a Hutt,” Han laughed.
“I still can’t believe I’m getting married. Especially to Mara,” Luke replied.
“Speaking of Mara,” Han said as he nudged Luke.
Luke turned and froze. All he saw was a vision of beauty walking toward him. The woman he loved dressed in white, emerald, silver, and blue. She was perfection.
*Breath Luke,* Mara smiled.
*Sorry, it’s just you look so beautiful,* Luke replied breathlessly.
Finally Talon placed Mara’s hand in Luke’s. The couple shared a bright smile before turning to face the priest.
************************************************************************
*9 Months Later*
Luke dabbed at Mara’s forehead and held her hand. “You’re doing fine Mara,” he whispered.
“I love you Luke,” Mara breathed heavily.
“It shouldn’t be much longer Mara,” Holsten said.
Mara clutched her husband’s hand and gritted her teeth as he body was racked by another contraction. A month after they were married, the Skywalkers found out Mara was pregnant. However, Mara had not had an easy pregnancy. At six months, she was put on bed rest.
The last three months had been worrisome for Luke. He had left his academy to tend to Mara. Though Luke tired to hide his fear, Mara had still seen it. She did her best to assure him everything was going to be fine.
“Okay Mara, when I say so, I want you to push,” Holsten instructed.
“Okay,” Mara nodded.
“Now, push Mara,” Holsten replied.
Luke held her hand as Mara pushed. He used the Force to send his love and strength to his wife and son. Hoping it would be enough.
************************************************************************
“I hope Mara’s alright,” Leia said as she sat beside Han.
“She’s tough,” Han stated.
For ten hours, Han and Leia had been waiting outside Mara’s room at the medical center. Anakin, Jacen, and Jaina were at the apartment with Chewie and Winter. Leia and Han jumped to their feet as a medical team rushed into the room. A few moments later, they left with Mara.
“What’s going on?” Han demanded.
“Where’s Luke and the baby?” Leia asked.
No one answered. Han held his wife as they watched the team hurry away with Mara. A second later, Luke exited the room holding his newborn son.
“Luke, what’s going on?” Leia questioned as she hurried to her twin.
“I don’t know. Mara’s heart rate and breathing became irregular,” Luke answered shakily.
“He looks wonderful kid,” Han smiled softly as he looked down at his nephew.
“His name is Ben. Holsten says he’s in perfect health,” Luke replied.
“Luke, go to Mara. Han and I will bring Ben,” Leia said as she took the baby.
“Thanks,” Luke nodded.
Luke kissed his son then ran down the hall. Leia smiled down at her nephew. He was already sound asleep. Peacefully unaware his mother was fighting for her life.
************************************************************************
Luke sighed as he stood on his balcony. Today was Ben’s first birthday. Ben had loved playing with his three older cousins. Not to mention all the gifts and attention he received from family and friends.
“Is Ben asleep?” Luke asked.
“Finally. Our little Jedi is exhausted,” Mara answered as she slid her arm around his waist.
“To tell you the truth, so am I,” he chuckled as he held her.
“Me too,” she nodded.
The day Ben was born, Mara had nearly died. Thankfully, Holsten, his team, and the Force had saved her. Though Ben was able to go home with Luke two days later, Mara had to stay for nearly two weeks.
“Oh, how did your check up go yesterday?” Luke asked.
“Everything came back negative. Holsten said we can try for another child,” Mara answered happily.
Luke looked down at his wife and smiled. He pulled her close and kissed her tenderly. She let out a squeal of surprise when he scooped her up into his arms.
“Well, let’s get started,” he laughed.
Mara’s laughter echoed through the apartment as Luke hurried from the balcony to their bedroom.
THE END!
